Yeah would have loved to live in a a place like yours, Rog! Just wasn't in the cards for us. We are "almost" in the country---LOL!

I found this place when I was doing insurance work. Had to do a policy renewal inspection and it had a for sale sign. 2 months later we bought the place. Can't find the pictures of the place as we bought it. First time my Mother saw it she said Roger I think you lost your mind. Year later she bought two trees for the front yard.
Cleaned the carb on my daughter's ex-boyfriends toro push mower. He couldn't get it to start, it's got one of those weird flywheel driven auto chokes. I found the coil was touching the flywheel so I re-gapped it. I cleaned carb, the little idle port on the end was plugged which I think cause his starting issues. Started in first pull after I put it together, but still runs not perfectly smooth, plug looks rough too, I may get a new one. Also sharpened the blade.
Then I replaced the battery on my Sears 16/6 and winch wouldn't work, I haven't had it out of barn since last fall. Seems I had a lot of corrosion on connections and the main fuse for the battery wire to the ignition had a short, sometimes it would work then not. Replaced the fuse and a few new eyelet connectors and everything worked. I removed the snow blade and installed my homemade Johnny bucket for future work I have planned.
